One easy thing we could do to reduce U.S. carbon emissions that contribute to climate chaos would be to get more Americans to take trains more often. When you take the train, your marginal contribution to carbon emissions is basically zero. More Americans would take the train more often if they had greater trust that the train would almost always be on time. Unfortunately, Amtrak passenger trains are often delayed by freight trains, like the Canadian National Railway, which owns the former Illinois Central line between Chicago and New Orleans, among others in the U.S. (You can share other examples or your story of passenger train delay in your comment with your signature.) Tell the Canadian National Railway to stop delaying Amtrak passenger trains so we can get more Americans to ride the train and reduce our carbon footprint by using infrastructure we already have.

Republicans are trying to prevent Virginians from voting for Democrats by starting another roadblock to require everyone to have a photo ID. It will require more than 5 hours to travel to governmental center and cost $20. This will be a hardship to seniors, disabled,young people and an inconvience to everyone, since we all received new voter cards last October.We could feed hungry children using the money this will save.

This Petition is about, Drug Treatment in Maryland. Treatment is so needed in the state of Maryland, not just 30 day treatment Programs, but some kind of LONG Term Treatment. Most Addicts has been using Drugs most of their LIFE, and 30 Days just isn't enough to assist someone in getting CLEAN...............AFFORDABLE Treatment is VERY NEEDED...........

Once again the Idaho legislature is reducing funding to education so that to maintain our education programs we must turn to levies and the inevitable rise in property taxes. Idaho should be ashamed!

Even though I have hunted and fished all my life, I believe that there needs to be a sensible alternative to the private arms ownership proliferation that has created a serious public health and safety problem. As car drivers we accept the responsibility for carrying liability insurance. Background checks and limitations on ammunition magazines are comparable and we should support such legislation.

When I cast my vote in PA, I want to be sure that my vote is going for the candidate that I believe will do the most good for PA and the Country. I do not want the Governor and his pals messing with the Electoral votes and cheating me out of my vote and the others that are voting like I am. No riggin should be done. Other Republican Governors that thought of doing this have decided not to do it. It is only our Governor who is still willing to skew the Electoral votes. This Governor has been the worst in History. PA deserves better and hopefully we will get it at the next election.

Label all genetically modified (GM) foods in Florida. We have the right to know!

Salt Lake now ranks # 1 in air pollution. As residents here, this is quite evident and disturbing. Pass laws to require more stringent pollution controls on refineries, and promote research and development of wind and solar power technologies for production in Utah.

Whereas there is so much deadlock that exists in the U.S. congress, and, unitl now, in the state legislature, I propose a bill to limit the terms of state and federal legislators (including the U.S. Senate) to 2 terms. People who serve too long develop a sense of entitlement and power that does not always work towards the best interest of the public. In addition too much of their time and many of their decisions are based upon being re-elected instead of taking care of the people's business.

Governor McDonald we must stop every effort towards voter supression in the state of Virginia,it is unconstitutional.

Let's take back control of our government and eliminate the special class of congress.

Factory farming is cruel to animals and should be stopped. Not only are the animals unhealthy, but the produce is too.
